Only In Haiti, Guilty of Attempted Kidnapping, Free To Go!

The U.S. missionary who was accused of attempted kidnapping in Haiti has been convicted and guess what else? She has been released. Laura Silsby is free to go!

Watch this video news report from the Associated press.

(video not available)

In the United States, Laura Silsby would be convicted of attempted kidnapping but in Haiti, she was convicted for "arranging illegal travel under a 1980 statute restricting movement out of Haiti signed by then-dictator Jean-Claude Duvalier"

In other words... There are no laws to protect the children of Haiti...

Her 3 months in prison in Haiti is her only sentence?

That's all you get in Haiti for attempting to kidnap 33 children?

Wow...

Do you agree with the judge's decision?
